About the Evertz 7867VIPA32-DUO-HS-DIN +CSX 3G/HD/SD Multi Display Processor Multiviewer
The Evertz 7867VIPA32-DUO-HS-DIN+CSX is a high-density, multi-function display processor engineered to serve as a centralized visual monitoring hub in complex broadcast and media operations centers. Its core function is that of an advanced multiviewer, capable of ingesting up to 32 discrete 3G/HD/SD-SDI video signals, decoding them, and composing them into customizable multi-picture layouts for presentation on one or more high-resolution display outputs. This allows operators in master control, network operations, or live production environments to monitor dozens of channels, sources, or stages of a production pipeline simultaneously from a consolidated display wall or bank of monitors. The unit’s integration of a DIN audio de-embedder and a high-performance closed caption decoder (CSX) within the same chassis provides a comprehensive monitoring solution, enabling visual verification of audio levels and ancillary data like subtitles and captions directly within or alongside the video mosaics.
This processor distinguishes itself with its dual-head output capability ("DUO"), meaning it can drive two completely independent multiviewer displays, each with its own unique layout. This allows for role-specific monitoring, such as a broad overview of all incoming feeds on one screen and a dedicated, detailed view of on-air and backup channels with associated audio meters and caption verification on another. The system offers extensive customization, supporting on-screen branding with source identifiers and logos, alarm banners that trigger on signal loss or content errors (like black or frozen video), and support for various aspect ratio markers and safe area grids. Configuration is managed through intuitive software, enabling operators to save and instantly recall multiviewer templates tailored to different shows, shifts, or operational needs.
Housed in a robust 2RU rackmount chassis built for continuous operation, the 7867VIPA32 consolidates the functionality of multiple standalone devices—including a large-scale multiviewer engine, an audio de-embedding matrix, and a broadcast-quality caption decoder—into a single, manageable appliance. This integration drastically reduces system complexity, cabling, and rack space while improving reliability. By delivering unparalleled signal visibility, integrated compliance monitoring, and operational flexibility, this display processor acts as an essential command center, ensuring technical staff have the comprehensive, real-time insight needed to maintain the integrity of live and recorded broadcast streams.
